Vihtavuori Reloading Data Updated for Seven Cartridge Types
If you read our 2011 Super Shoot Report by James Mock, you’ll see that Vihtavuori N133 powder is the overwhelming choice of top short-range benchrest shooters for loading their 6PPCs. Other Vihtavuori powders, such as N135, N150, and N550 are also very popular for other match and hunting cartridges.
If you currently use a Vihtavuori (VV) powder, or you plan to try a Vihtavuori powder in the near future, visit www.Lapua.com soon. Load info on Lapua’s Vihtavuori Reloading Data Page has been updated (or added) for the following calibers: .222 Remington, .223 Remington, .223 WSSM (new caliber data), .22-250 Remington, 6.5 Grendel, 6.5×47 Lapua, and 7.62x53R. In the updated tables, you’ll find VV powder recipes for a wide variety of bullets from Hornady, Lapua, Nosler, Sierra, Speer and other bullet-makers.
Though these recipes are fairly conservative, always start low and work up gradually when using a new powder for the first time. Likewise, you should back off your load if you change ANY component or if you have fitted a new barrel to your rifle.
Story tip by EdLongrange. We welcome submissions from our readers.Vihtavuori N100 Series
The N100 series powders are single-base powders used mainly in rifle calibers. There are ten N100 series powders with different burning rates and suitability from the .17 Remington up to the .458 Winchester Magnum and two special powders for .50 BMG.N500 Series
The N500 series powders are impregnated extruded rifle powders with Nitroglycerol added as extra energy component. If higher loading densities and more energy are needed, N500 series powders are competent alternatives for the N100 series powders. N500 series High Energy powders are available in five different burning rates.

Thank you
Buon giorno, da alcuni anni pratico la caccia di selezione al Capriolo con una carabina Bolt Action e la caccia al Cinghiale in braccata con carabina semi automatica. Per queste ragioni desideravo avere lumi per la ricarica in 30-06 di palle BARNES TSX 30846 da 110 gr per il primo caso e da 180 gr per il secondo.
Mi è stata consigliata e fornita la N140, ma consultando alcune tabelle, ho scoperto che sono citate solo le polveri N150-160 e le 540-550.
Cosa mi consigliate.
Grazie 1000
Why can’t I find any reloading data on this powder. I’m looking for loading information on ,38spl, 357, and 45 colt plus a 12 gauge shotgun. Can you send me something on these types of guns.
Thank you,

Played around with this powder a while back loading .338 Lapua Magnum for a Savage rifle. I actually got ONE test load, three rounds measured on my chronometer (I had five made up but two didn’t register) with a TWO fps standard deviation. Never got a chance to really explore this as I ran out of powder (I seem to recall 338 LM eating up about 93 grains per round and a pound goes FAST) and it wasn’t available anywhere at the time. i really wish VV would sell this in 5 or 8 lb jugs – it’s the priciest, yet very likely the most consistent powder available, when it’s available. I’d like to use it for 300 win mag but hate developing a load I can’t find the powder to make up in quantity.
